I would not bet my money on it being the best wilddog road, as I've seen wilddogs more often between Lower Sabie and Crocodile bridge (4 times ) and Skukuza and Tshokwane (3 times) than on the H3 (1 time).

This is an excellent road. Have seen all the big 5 (including black rhino) from this road. Many rare sightings as well. This road just gets a little busy in peak times for my liking.

Only travelled this road once, way too busy to our liking, but Ishare Christo's view as far as the big five is concerned - it gave us a stalking leopard, pride of lion, plenty of rhino and elephant from 07:00 to 09:00 in one morning.

According to my records this road is a total of 48.5 km between Malelane Gate and the H1-1 junction. I have travelled a total of 411.9 km on the H3 since 1987. My personal experience is that it has never proven to be a particurlay good road. I have seen leopard, lion and white rhino on this road (and love travelling this road), but I will not regard it as an exceptional good road for game viewing.

I've found the best sightings in summer time if I leave Berg & Dal at 04:30 when predators are common on the road. I usually break at Afsaal and again at Skukuza, after visiting Renosterkoppies & Stevenson Hamilton look out. Eat breakfast at Skukuza at +- 8 and drive back at a steady pace, arriving back in Berg & Dal at +- 11:00.
